Willowtigger has a wealth of information that is important to Willowtigger. Victorian kids knew nothing about all the stuff we know these days.
Good point. It’s irrelevant. Music notes? I am tone deaf I don’t play music lol we have google ha isn’t it the truth.

Also I know it’s a stupid comment for laughs, but people died young at that time, they had no antibiotics. So they had to rush learning stuff before they die at 40. We have longer lives to learn things
